Sculpture on the Farm Dungog - Updated 2025

About Sculpture on the Farm

Sculpture on the Farm 2025 is scheduled for Friday, August 29, to Sunday, August 31, 2025, at the 650-acre Dungog Common Recreation Reserve, accessible via 74 Common Road, Dungog NSW 2420. A curated selection of large-scale sculptures will be exhibited publicly throughout September 2025 in the Dungog Common. This event will complement the existing permanent Sculpture Trail of sculptures already installed at the Dungog Common.

Sculpture on the Farm Dungog 2025 (SOF2025) upholds the tradition of honouring Australian sculpture within the rural setting of Dungog, New South Wales. SOF enhances the Dungog Shire by contributing sculptures for public exhibition. In 2025, SOF will showcase more than 100 sculptures by some of Australia's most respected and creative sculptors.

The exhibition, which started on a farm in Fosterton in 2018, has expanded, prompting us to find a larger and more accessible location and has now relocated to the Dungog Common on the outskirts of Dungog township.

This year's event features demonstrations, workshops, and guided walks through nature and sculpture trails. All sculptures, including intimate indoor pieces, garden artworks, and monumental creations, will be available for purchase.
